Bug Description

After creating a bootable usb stick the boot terminates with:

Boot failure : No DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found!
boot:

Reason: the program copies the ISO image 1:1 but the boot loader (syslinux) requires the boot folder and config files to be named

syslinux and syslinux.* instead of isolinux and isolinux.*

This seems a regression as it did work on 12.04 and 11.10

Workaround: Manually rename the folder and the two files within (isolinux.bin and isolinux.cfg)
